Cyber ​​Fantasy: Dragon Elves and Mortals

As he said this, Russell and Delphinium both fell silent and looked at him.

The inferior person leaned his body back and leaned on the sofa.He raised his right leg and stepped on the table in front of him.

But at that moment, Delphinium's eyes suddenly became stern.

Her temperament suddenly changed, and she squinted her eyes to look at the inferior.

The proud stag coughed lightly, put down his legs without leaving a trace, and reached out to wipe the glass tabletop where he had made shoe marks.

He sat up straight again as if nothing had happened, crossed his legs and said solemnly: "Therefore, in Happy Island, actions that reduce happiness are sinful, and actions that increase happiness are worthy of encouragement. Therefore, Tianen Group encourages idols and virtual games , toys, outdoor entertainment and other industries.

"You know, Mr. Russell. 'Idols', 'singers', 'actors', 'entertainers' and 'producers' have a higher status here than us executives. It's because they can give people" Bring happiness'... Among these professions, comedians have the highest status.

"——By the way, in Happy Island, the so-called 'heroes' are also the highest-status among the 'idols'."

The inferior said, grinning: "Don't blame me for spoiling your fun now. I'm just telling you this to see that you don't look like a bad guy. When you actually meet the other 'heroes' later, , you will know why I said this.”

After hearing this, Russell seemed to vaguely understand why inferior people disliked him.

In fact, he probably realizes the extent to which people will abuse the name of "hero" in this environment.

Even if he is not a packaged hero, but a real hero... under the connivance of this environment and the worship of people, he may be easily corrupted, or even ascend to the altar and become a chess player.

But Russell had another doubt:

"...Can happiness that is detected and turned into data also be considered happiness?"

"On the contrary. Only those who are detected are happy."

The inferior sneered and whispered: "Whether you are happy or not, the company only looks at the measured data indicators. This is a test that includes testing your dopamine and mental activity, and the analysis includes your behavior, social status, physical health, income and A comprehensive value is obtained after taking into account many data such as savings status. If the data says you are happy, you are happy; if the data says you are unhappy, you are unhappy."

Hearing this, Russell suddenly realized something.

Seeing Russell's stunned expression, Delphinium's eyes softened inexplicably.

“It’s similar to Sogo Island’s idea.”

She whispered: "Sogo Island is using the excuse of 'using artificial intelligence to predict crimes' to analyze the irrational behavior of suspected demons. Tianen Group, on the other hand, is using the excuse of 'detecting happiness' to detect 'out-of-control psychic energy'" 'Trace of infection.

"The monthly test report will report the corresponding happiness level of the person. If it is close to the dangerous value, then the person will be forced to take a period of leave, visit a psychologist according to the instructions, participate in psychological treatment, or exercise and enter the virtual space Play games, take therapeutic drugs... until the happiness value returns to green, you are not allowed to continue working."

"...If I take leave for a long time to treat happiness, won't I be fired?"

"Of course. So being 'not happy enough' often leads to 'unhappiness'. First the job is transferred out, then the income level drops, and it may even cause a chain reaction like a snowball. So everyone is trying their best to stay 'happy' , Smiling, from the boss to the employees, if anyone complains or loses his temper, he will be alienated immediately.

"If directors and managers of small companies cannot patiently explain to their subordinates with a smile, they may even be interviewed by the media. Then they may be attacked by public opinion on the Internet - if their happiness level drops because of this, they may not even be interviewed. They are allowed to participate in the board of directors. If employees are not 'happy' enough, they may be forced to take a 'leave' to adjust their mood, or even be fired.

"A person who constantly vents his bad mood to those around him will make his colleagues want him to leave as soon as possible. They are worried that their mood will be contaminated by him."

——It’s unbelievable.

Russell realized for the first time that the life style on Happy Island might be even more twisted than Sogo Island.

There is no Chongguang on Chongguang Island, and there is no happiness on Happy Island... Only then did he fully understand why Bad Ri said such words at that time.

“How can a person be happy if he loses his job, loses his income, loses his relationships?”

"Of course it's drug treatment, sometimes surgery, and some more drastic methods. But I don't want to tell you these, because you won't have a real sense of it. It's best if you see it with your own eyes."

The bad guy was silent for a moment, and continued: "Of course, in more cases, people will take precautions before they happen. When they realize that their data may not meet the standards, they will find a 'firm' to process the data in advance. Ordinary people will do this during a physical examination. , will also try to reward themselves before the examination...such as doing something pleasant or eating delicious food to temporarily increase dopamine levels.

"After all... if you are not happy enough for a long time, it is really possible for people to turn into demons."

The inferior person narrowed his eyes: "Then, instead of solving the causes of people's unhappiness, it is better to stop directly from the point of 'unhappiness'. A person whose spirit has been depressed for a long time, if his desire is strong enough, may be protected by the chip. Those who are still awakened to spiritual energy...just like you, like us. If you can't use the correct method to release your spiritual energy to channelize your desires, you may turn into a demon.

"Therefore, this happiness test will also detect traces of the other party's psychic infection. If there are traces of psychic energy in the opponent's psychic energy that have a red shift level that significantly exceeds the blue shift level, that is, traces of out-of-control psychic energy, Then an alert will be sent directly to our department without alerting the other party.

"However, this test cannot confirm whether the other party is a real demon - the equipment that directly detects the psychic level is extremely expensive, and the demon must be wary.

"Whether it is a demon, a familiar, or an ordinary person attacked by a demon, as long as it has been affected by the ability of out-of-control psychic energy, traces of this infection will be detected. Because generally speaking, awakened demons will become much more cunning. .Although they don’t know the truth about the happiness test, many people will use various means to circumvent the test due to their caution. However, those who have been attacked or controlled by them will always have their secrets exposed.

"The growth period of a demon usually lasts about a month. Therefore, the happiness level is also tested once a month. However, if the demon devours too many people's minds, it may hatch in advance.

"When we received the report, it meant that this demon had begun to attack ordinary people or create familiars. And we don't know how long it took before the traces of the victims were detected by us. Generally speaking, The real devil is required to be identified within three days of receiving the report.

"If there are multiple reports and by comparing the intersection of interpersonal relationships, it is easy to identify the devil or narrow the scope to a few individuals. In that case, even if coercive measures are used, there will at least be a direction.

"But if the devil's attack behavior is more cautious and slow, and there may be only isolated cases reported within a few days, then it will be difficult to investigate the true identity of the devil. The familiar will definitely start looking for people around him, but after being The person attacking does not necessarily have to be closely related to him. Once the snake is alerted, it is easy for the demon to no longer hide and start devouring innocent people, using this method to accelerate hatching."

"Does that mean we can only investigate secretly?"

Russell asked.

Delphinium nodded: "Be quick and make no mistakes. Once something goes wrong, it won't be as simple as wronging a good person... Once the demon is successfully hatched, it will mean the sacrifice of at least dozens, and up to hundreds and thousands of people." .”

"So, what is the specific strength of the enemy I want to fight...?"

"Demons that have been hatched are generally sixth-level psykers who have broken through the wall of the Zodiac."

The girl with white hair and dog ears said seriously: "You should know this. Although I have never gone to college, I think this kind of knowledge should be taught in college. The boundary between level 1 and level 2 is called the Wall of Behemoth, 5 The boundary of level -6 is called the Zodiac Wall. After crossing the boundary, not only the intensity of psychic energy is greatly different, but also the psykers who have crossed the Zodiac Wall have some difficulty in controlling their psychic powers...must use Assists in unfolding the chip to seal itself."

"I know."

Russell nodded.

Psykers above level six, if not sealed, may even unconsciously rewrite the will and memory of those around them in dreams, and do things similar to demons - if they have nightmares, they may even Killing someone who is sleeping with you in a dream.After completing the red shift = blue shift surge ritual, the red shift will no longer decrease, so ordinary suppression methods are useless.

A psyker who reaches level six must use an auxiliary deployment chip, blur the memory of his awakened psionic power, and save the memory as a 'key' to the key chip.

This will cause their psychic abilities to be suppressed below level five.When needed, insert the key chip from the interface of your own prosthetic body - just like a USB flash drive for reinstalling the system. The key memories will be recalled and blurred the moment it is inserted. The memory is recalled instantly, and the freshest emotions and the most stable spiritual energy are obtained, and powerful and controllable spiritual energy is erupted.

If the psychic power continues to be strong and crosses the "Leviathan Wall" between levels eight and nine... then it will become a real monster.

Not the body, but the mind.After the red shift reaches the ninth level, it becomes a "spiritual monster" that cannot be restrained by human morality, logic, emotions, memory, and laws.

There are also some schools of thought that this can also be regarded as a kind of "ascension to the gods".It is a process in which ordinary things are sublimated into "gods".

But because there are no clear descriptions of psykers above level nine in the textbooks, Russell didn't know what that meant.

Speaking of which, when Russell learned "assisted deployment of chips", he had not yet recalled the memories of his previous life.But now that I think about it, this seems a bit like the transformation of Kamen Rider...

"As long as you want, you can apply for an auxiliary chip at any time. Those psykers in the execution department, as well as some illegal psykers who are afraid of death and don't want to become demons, will use auxiliary chips to seal themselves. But after you complete the transfer Before the surge, there is no need... If you don't seal the psychic energy, it will grow faster. Your blue shift is level four, and it may take a few months to upgrade the red shift to level four, completing the surge. ceremony.

"You have to reach at least level six to ensure your own safety and the ability to deal with demonic affairs. The demon that has just awakened must be no more, no less, exactly six levels - if the demon appears, this is the huge power of the local special execution department on Kongdao An omission. We must risk our lives to make up for this mistake immediately to ensure that the situation does not escalate further."

Having said this, Delphinium paused, looked at Russell and added: "Of course, if something goes wrong, you can leave it alone for now. After all, you are not strong enough to participate, and you cannot participate at this level. battle."

"When the time comes, just let me and the minister handle it."

The inferior said calmly: "You don't have to be afraid. You are still in the internship period and have not become a full-time employee... You are mainly responsible for tracking down suspected demons."

"……Wait a moment."

Listening to their words, Russell suddenly realized a very important question: "Such a large Fortune Group, with more than 2 employees...are there only three of us in the special execution department?"
